Setup an Controller

I'm having some problems with setting up a controller using direct input.
I got all of the prefs defined, all of the buttons binded, and the trouble is remapping.
When I tried to remap the movement to the thumbsticks(on a xbox controller), nothing happened. So, I figured it was the deadzone values. What should the deadzone values be?
Secondly, I tried to remap one of the buttons, and the mapping failed. What am I doing wrong?
Third, is there a way to set a name to identify the buttons, thumbsticks, bumpers, etc. to something like(RStick, AButton,RBumper) when its showing what button it is than joystick0?
Ive tested it to see if it is being seen, and it is being seen.

It maps the "action name" in the page to the actual function in defaultbinds.cs, allowing you to select these from the Options Dialog.
Additionally, the game generates a file - scripts/client/config.cs - which has the current binds from defaultbinds.cs in it. When editing defaultbinds.cs, ensure that you delete config.cs or you will not see your changes in-game.
